Duloxetine
Hi all. First time poster and v nervous. I am due to switch to Duloxetine from Citalopram for GAD, SAD and Depression tomorrow and am really scared/anxious and concerned about how it it may affect me :unsure:. Also has anyone got any positives they can provide me with?
(I was thinking of starting a daily blog of how it goes for me and wondered if anyone would be interested?.)

Re: Duloxetine
So, here goes nothing. Finished my 2 weeks on just 10mg of citalopram (be on 20mg for over 12 months) and now popping my first 30mg blue and white capsule of duloxetine . I think i am prepared for anything thanks to other threads/posts on here, whether I can cope with them is another thing, fingers crossed!!! :scared15:

Re: Duloxetine
So after first pill no dramatic effects to report good or bad apart from not being able to sleep properly last night. Expect to be tired today:sleep: Obviously very early days, so popping number 2 down the hatch and will see how I go today. Thanks for reading.

Re: Duloxetine
So, yesterday saw me feeling really drained as I expected and also with no appetite until the evening. I felt a little on edge and down maybe due to lack of sleep and no food, however I couldn't sleep during the day either. I did sleep a little better last night even if it was rather broken.
Popped number 3 today !

Re: Duloxetine
Hi. I was feeling tired yesterday although not enough to sleep during the day. I again didnt sleep particularly well as it was mainly broken and this was despite taking on 3.75mg zopiclone to help. I am hoping the sleep problems wear off as i get used to the meds. I also had pretty much no appetite all day until around 7pm when i got quite hungry. Other than that (touch wood), so far i haven't had any other side effects. Popped number 4 today !
